[Solomon Grundy]

How is Allen gonna go in the locker room full of men and explain those tweets?

Nobody wanted. Hilarious. 

 

6 teams didn’t want him. That’s all you know. And lots of people pegged him as No 1. Be realistic: This is not Aaron Maybin. 

Riiigggght.

F that.

We had a Tom Brady sort of player in our grasp named Josh Rosen and we threw it away for a project with horrible accuracy issues and a demonstrated inability to grasp the mental aspect of the position that is so critical at the NFL level.

 

But he is definitely a big guy with a strong arm!  Whoo-hooo!

 

 

Josh Rosen Tom Brady!

 

Take suicide. 

[Pine Barrens Mafia]

Well at least we didn’t draft the drooling idiot. There’s that.

Tom Brady like.  Sure he is.  I would have liked Rosen too but come on.

I love all the negativity, really makes me laugh. Some ppl are talking like they are real scouts and know better than the professional scouts. Haha.. I hope Allen is really special and prove all these posters wrong!!

[Klaista2k]

Bhahahahhahahha the board is gonna lose it over this pick.

LMAO at all the freak outs about a guy yet to step on the field.  

 

I love that all the arm chair GM's here are freaking out as if they know more than the professionals who invested thousands of hours into real due diligence and research to make the decision.  

 

It may or may not work out...but geezus, stop being so miserable about it and be stoked the Bills traded up for a guy they felt strong enough about that he was worth trading to go get.  AND WE KEPT OUR OTHER FIRST ROUND PICK.  

 

Some of you were screaming to trade both 2nds and 3 first round picks for #2 and Rosen who lasted to the TENTH pick.  So glad you guys aren't the GM

Very well put. 

 

Now let the freakout continue.

Because:

 

 

1) we still have 22. We didn’t trade the farm

 

2) bust? Hahahaha. 

 

1) we got fleeced. Both 2nds? Did you see what the Cards gave up to move up to 10 for Rosen? A 3 and a 5.

2) You won't be laughing when you realize how bad Josh Allen is.

Ok, I'm over the shock and starting to find reasons to get excited (as I always do, I try my best to be a positive "look at the bright side" type of person). 

 

This team holds me hostage. Already my brain has decided he can be great. Why not right?? I'm just happy we didn't give up extra 1sts for him.

[BeginnersMind]

Best arm. 

 

Highest Wonderlic. 

 

Ideal size. 

 

Stellar leadership and teammate. 

 

Accuracy issues. 

 

They all had question marks. Im going to trust the process and enjoy the kid. Seems like a good young man.

Horrible take. He is nothing like EJ. 

 

Do better.

The opposite of this.  Pegula's reaction to the kneeling controversy shows he's very uncomfortable with PR challenges.  That the Bills took Allen is proof that Pegula is giving Beane free reign. 

Nah, Pegula is just smart enough to know that this Twitter controversy will fade away quite fast. 

[PromoTheRobot]

We'll at least the Bills can say they got their guy.

Now she is worth all our picks for the next 5 years. 

[MDH]

I’m going to blame Beane for my hangover tomorrow. I switched from beer to whiskey after the Allen pick.

[T-Bomb]

Pegula is such a **** owner, his teams will never have success.  The Bills maintain their laughing stock status.

 

Allen over Rosen, this mistake will be remembered for decades. FO is full of a bunch of arrogant pricks.
